Designing a small hairdressing salon: it’s all about style...
It can sometimes be difficult to know where to start when planning the layout of a small hairdressing salon. However, a small floor area doesn’t have to mean a complicated layout. By making the most of the space and natural light, clearly defining the different areas and choosing the right furniture, you can create a hairdressing salon where everyone feels at home… whether they’re working or having their hair done!
The task is easier if you already have an idea of the style you like – chic, modern, vintage, cosy… You can then choose the base colours and the type of furniture. Need some inspiration? Feel free to browse through interior design magazines or ask the My Salon advisers for advice.
Key points to bear in mind for a successful hairdressing salon layout
Small spaces have the advantage of creating an intimate atmosphere. They also come with certain constraints: in particular, there’s no question of cramming in too much furniture or cluttering up the space unnecessarily! To successfully design a small hairdressing salon, here are a few basic rules:
- opt for light colours to create a sense of space – though this doesn’t stop you from adding a few touches of darker or brighter colours;
- make the most of light, whether natural or artificial, and opt for several well-positioned light sources rather than uniform lighting;
- don’t hesitate to add large mirrors: they create a pleasant sense of space and enhance the brightness;
- clearly define the different areas of your hairdressing salon and ensure easy movement, avoiding any unnecessary items or décor on the floor;
- choose ergonomic furniture, with shapes and dimensions that suit your salon and its layout without cluttering the space;
- opt for shampoo basins or double or triple styling stations, lined up against a wall to save space, or create a central styling area using a round station with several seats;
- for the till area, opt for a console table, which takes up less space than a counter;
- Pay careful attention to the waiting area, which is important even in the layout of a 25 m² hairdressing salon;
- avoid cluttering the walls and the space with overly imposing decorative items; opt instead for a few frames or photos with a minimalist style, and one or two carefully chosen ornaments placed high up…
